Mopar1973Man Meeting Diesel Auto Power

Mopar1973Man · April 16, 2021

@dieselautopower @Quadzilla Power @Jthor

I finally made the first step of meeting vendors for the first time. Happen that @Wet Vettewanted to catch up with her older daughter. Being I was only 30 miles from Layton UT I had to go meet Jacob Kidd in person. It only a 8 hour drive over to DAP from my home. Most would say this didn't happen unless there is photos right?

Big shocker for most of you... Starting from the left, myself Mopar1973Man, Yup no more pony tail on me... Then Marco From Quadzilla and then to the right is Jacob Kidd. Just behind Jacob is Micthell all you can see him ducking and hiding. Other face to the far right I've already forgot the name. (shame on me) I still hard time keeping name and face right... :rolleyes:

Then under my arm is my new set of +50 HP injectors of my 2006 Dodge.

@Wet Vette was trying get photos of the rest of the crew... Some were trying to hid from camera view but she managed to get them. But you looking at the call center area for DAP.

I did get to go into the shop which I couldn't take any photos back there. I will say @dieselautopowerhas a awesome injector shop and crew back there. Jacob was showing me around how CR injectors are tested and scored. Some of the internal parts with in a injector. For a fair size shop they do handle all injectors in house for our Cummins trucks. Highly impressive injector shop. Then wondered out back to look in the warehouse. He's got other work stations out there for cleaning up cores and getting them inspected and ready for building again. Then wonder through rows of pallet racks full of new parts, some racks where full of cores (injectors and turbos). I'm really surprise even Jacob consider waste management for chemicals and cardboard. Most of his cardboard is ran through a shredder to turn it into a packing material for shipping again. Cleaning and testing fluids wise he's managed to keep waste to low levels too.

Oh, yeah that friendly voice most of hear as we call DAP. Lexi (forgive me if the spelling is wrong) she right there to greet you as you come in the door. Really nice after all these years of calling and her asking what I needed then tell her its "Mopar1973Man" calling again. The crew here is super awesome all very dedicated to getting the job done and staying focused.

All I can say is Diesel Auto Power is here to provide all the needed parts for our Cummins trucks... Even the Fords and Chevys too. Being I just bought @Jthor injectors through DAP for his 1995 Ford 7.3L diesel +50 HP injectors. Then just before leaving the exhaust brake came for a customer for a Duramax I've got to install.

Give them a call they are here to help you...

Yes sir... We are back home safe and sound by 9pm last night and unpack just enough to get to bed. Already up bright and early just mere 29*F degrees here Brrrr... Just like I left Salt Lake in a snow storm. Go back to Twin Falls and it got warm like 65*F yesterday actually had the A/C on. Yeah you got the spelling right... @Wet Vette is Eileen. My first job today is to install those injectors.
